For obviously different reasons, but still.

On one hand, Wallace was a virulent racist who fought integration with tooth and claw. On the other, Rockefeller increased the number of African Americans employed by the state government by 50% and backed the Equal Rights Amendment.

That was easy.

Huh, maybe Wallace is a much more complicated and multi-faceted figure than you think.


It's still nothing compared to all the excellent policies Rockefeller put out (sans the War on Drugs, which is only good on paper).
